Unforgettable trip that was tailored to perfection!!
From start to finish, the 8 day safari trip to 4 national parks my wife and I embarked on was absolute perfection. Not only was every moment flawlessly organized, but the staff was so kind and welcoming too. The owner, Judith, and her assistant Anita even went as far as to greet my wife with a beautiful bouquet of flowers once we arrived at the hotel! To add to this delight, Judith's quick problem solving was not overlooked. When my luggage was mistakenly left in Ethiopia, Judith worked her magic and managed to have it delivered to me the next day in Serengeti! We were in truly great hands throughout the trip.
A special shoutout to our tour guide Harun, who was knowledgeable, professional, and extremely experienced, yet so kind that he felt like a part of our family on this trip. His passion for the nature and wildlife is clear, and his wisdom enhanced every moment of our trip. Words can't describe how great he is!
I highly recommend this agency for anyone looking for a well organized adventure.

An expert guide, who knows nature like his back pocket and who is always up for a chat.
Our trip was smooth from start to finish thanks to Saïd’s professionalism and good planning. He is always open for suggestions of things you want to see and always makes sure you get the best (honeymoon) treatment in each accommodation. He speaks swahili, English and French fluently and knows all the other guides around. We had an amazing time and would love to go on an other adventure with him.

Outstanding - highly reccomend!
From the planning stage Clyde was brilliant. He spent time getting to know us and then planning our ideal trip. We had a couple of FaceTime calls to discuss. He is clearly knowledgable and was able to offer some great ideas for our trip. We knew we had be listened to as when the iteanrry came back it covered everything we wanted. The choice of lodges for safari and all other accommodation was excellent. All internal flights were included and booked for us. Noting was a problem.
Communication before and during the holiday was excellent. We were able to download an App before we left which had our itinerary clearly laid out. The App was so useful and ensured we knew what to expect and the numbers of days at each destination. Some useful tips for travel eg luggage weight for the internal flights. We even got a message from Clyde on the day we left wishing us a safe flight. Some of these personal touches may the holiday very special. Both Clyde and Amy were great at answering any questions we had.
The holiday its self was just amazing! It was everything and more than we wanted. Everywhere we stayed was of a high standard. Staff were just amazing. Pick up times and travel was all well organised we felt very safe. Drivers met us of planes and picked us up from places. Everyone we met was just so accommodating nothing was too much!
The safaris and Victoria Falls were magnificent. We loved every minute.
I can’t recommend highly enough Tailor made Africa. I have already shared details with friends who saw all our photos and want to book a trip. When we visit Africa again we will definitely be booking with Clyde and team again! Thank you for making it all so special!

super smooth experience!
I thoroughly enjoyed my day out bird watching at Semuliki National Park. The driver was punctual and friendly. My guide Patricia was really knowledgeable and her passion for birding showed! We saw some 35 different species that on visit. The food experience at the female hot springs was great, my main meal of the day. Moses, the park guide, was really knowledgeable and helpful too. All went out of their way to ensure a great trip. Overall a great experience all round! Thank you!!
Violet can also arrange trips to the local community, she has a good relationship with the people in the village.

Professional and Attentive
Our ten day tour which included a two night mokoro trip, walking safari, and mobile safari through Moremi, Savuti, and Chobe reserves was outstanding. The planning of our tour was easy, the trip itself was an amazing family experience, and we would recommend Shipungu for others without any hesitation. Our guide, Voice, was a true professional. He was incredible at reading tracks and finding hidden cats especially! He also is just a wonderful human and we enjoyed getting to know him and all of the staff that traveled with us from site to site. Avelino (the chef) in particular impressed us with his campside bread making skills and delicious meals! We felt taken care of at every turn and the staff managed a casual yet professional tone that suited our family perfectly - attentive but gave us privacy and generally fun people to spend an extended camping trip with! Thank you Shipungu!! We hope to be back someday to do it again!!

Pleasant and knowledgeable.
I recently had the privilege of experiencing a private safari with Amazing Memories Safaris, and I can genuinely say they live up to their name! My journey began after thorough research, where I found glowing reviews from a woman who had an incredible experience with this company. Her excitement and positive energy convinced me to trust Amazing Memories Safaris, and I’m so glad I did.
From the start, the communication with Dorcas was exceptional. She was patient, responsive, and answered every single question I had, making the entire planning process seamless. Dorcas guided me through designing a customized safari that was not only affordable but also tailored to my specific desires. I felt comfortable and reassured by her professionalism and her genuine care throughout the process.
When we arrived, we were assigned Patrick as our safari guide, and he was nothing short of amazing. Patrick was personable, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient. He took the time to ensure we had the best experience possible, allowing us to go at our own pace and making us feel completely at ease. His knowledge of the animals and the landscape was outstanding, and he made sure we didn’t just 'see' the wildlife, but truly experienced the magic of the safari. From learning about the behaviors of the Big Five to understanding the delicate balance of the ecosystem, Patrick enriched our experience with insights we’ll never forget.
Patrick also guided us safely and attentively throughout the safari, ensuring we had the most memorable moments while feeling secure and cared for. His ability to make us feel comfortable, safe, and engaged transformed our trip into something far beyond what we could have imagined.
Amazing Memories Safaris delivered on every promise and more. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly personalized, professional, and unforgettable safari experience. Special thanks to Dorcas for her exceptional guidance, and to Patrick for being such an incredible guide. This trip was everything we had hoped for and more!

Jartan was an experienced professional tour leader with great organizational and social skills
The Kenya and Tanzania safari tour exceeded all my expectations. Our leader was very organized and professional. He made the smoothness of our multiple activities every day seem effortless. He took the diverse group of travelers that was our group and made sure that everyone's experience was great. He was clear in his expectations of us and what our schedule would be every day. Most of us had not been on a Safari before so it was good to have the information we needed to be safe and to have a wonderful time every day. He and the drivers were amazing at finding and showing us the many animals that abounded in the parks we visited. We also got to visit various unique villages and meet and interact with the people who lived there. We danced and sang with them, got to try grinding grain, milking goats, shooting a bow and arrow among other experiences. At one village we watched members make a fire using only a stick, straw, and dung. At another we watched the blacksmiths create arrows and bracelets out of recycled copper, brass, and steel. We visited a school and interacted with the students and head teacher there. We watched artisans blow glass, make ceramic beads, weave, carve wood, and make baskets. We joined a family for lunch and had a wonderful time interacting with them and sharing information about life in each of our countries. The experiences were varied and fascinating. The hotels and camps we stayed in were clean and comfortable, the staff courteous and helpful, the food varied and delicious. It was "the trip of a lifetime" and I highly recommend our tour guide and this tour.

Amazing
I loved the days we spent at Kruger Park and Buffalo Camp Rock. The safaris were amazing. We managed to see the big five in just 2 days. The accommodations were excellent and the food was delicious.

An amazing experience
We booked an 8 day luxury package with Meijo Safaris. The experience was seamless and spectacular. Daudi was responsive to our questions and helped us assemble a custom itinerary that fit our budget, time, and interests. Our wonderful guide Herman was very experienced and showed us sights beyond imagination, including the great wildebeest migration, ostrich courtship and mating, and more than 30 lions. He also patiently answered our questions and was responsive to our every need, from moving the car to get a perfect photo to rustling up some ugali for us to try. Food and accommodation were wonderful throughout, with each location offering a unique experience. Finally, Meijo ensured that we didn’t have to worry about anything from the moment we landed in Tanzania. This trip really was the experience of a lifetime — thank you Meijo Safaris.

I had the best guide kalion john
I had 1 of the best guides kalion John. As an Asian, I was early for all my meet up timings with my guide. He was always early waiting for us with a big smile.
Though there were some hiccups initially, our guide made right the issues brought up. This is because I did a 2 pax free and easy package with some conservacies fee prepaid by me and hotel bookings done by me. Which was pretty confusing for them.
But I appreciate this company matching to my needs and always offering good suggestions. Eg to swop safari timing to morning as u have better animal sightings....or packing the activities tighter so I can save some money.
I would highly recommend all to consider them.
I did a tour with another company and I must say, Super eagles was the better company.
Few tips/ things to note in general for all kenya and uganda tours:
1.there is no aircon on van
2.Bring a fan if u can, coz all accomodations in kenya and uganda didn't have any fan.
3. There are options provided, do check upfront how much time u get for each activity. Eg safari time, horse ride
